WELCOME

We invite you to worship with us at the Church of the Covenant. For over one hundred years, we have sought to be a welcoming spiritual home, live God's inclusive love, express Christ's compassion, and do justice in the world. As a diverse community, we find unity in our shared identify as Jesus' disciples and in our desire to put God's love into action within and beyond these walls. Whether you are a student, in the area with a patient in the hospital, visiting from out of town, looking for a church home, or a decades-long member, may you experience the wonder of God's presence as we worship together!
